Your claim is ludicrous. What is "tons"? I will have to see an obese person do 100 push ups before I believe you. Doing 20 push ups is _hard_. Doing 100 push ups non-stop is athlete level performance.

Yes, often. It is more convenient and safer than using credit card directly. When combined with Paypal credit card, you get cashback too, so you are not really losing anything.

Philip Greenspun became a millionaire at 37. He wrote about his experience and provided some good advices (IMO): http://philip.greenspun.com/materialism/early-retirement/ . EDIT: Forgot to say - Congratulations!
